hd newbie from az
greetings!
a few weeks ago i relocated (back) to arizona from colorado, and as i was out to lunch on a sunday afternoon i walked by a rather striking motorcycle that turned out to be a hd sportster nightster.
what is unusual about this is that prior to this point i've never been drawn to a hd. i've ridden several makes/models but this bike had several key qualities that attracted me including the retro/urban cruiser style, and the size of the bike overall.
intrigued, i went to a local dealer to take a closer look and that's when i saw the hd sportster forty-eight in chrome yellow. i loved the look of this even more, and i had to take a ride.
one short ride later, i was sold.
so, here i am in a new state only a couple of weeks and i'm already trading out my ride for a brand-new hd sportster forty-eight in chrome yellow and i couldn't be happier. i love this bike!
in my zest for information i ran across this forum (and a few others) and wanted to jump in and say hello to everyone. i plan to take a slow-and-steady approach to upgrades, preferring to investigate options and make an informed decision on which upgrades i pursue.
nonetheless, i'll probably lurk and eavesdrop on the many threads and chime in from time to time with questions, or even my own thoughts as i gain background and experience with hd.
as for pics - well, i don't have one of my particular bike as yet but i'll post one up when that task gets checked-off.
stay safe!

it's been a rough year for fires in colorado already - they have to catch a break at some point, don't they?
anyway, my thoughts are with those impacted and affected by the fires.
